Results are out for the guaranteed basic income pilot in Austin where 135 people got $1,000/mo for a year.
9% of people reported working less and 7% reported working more. Of those who worked less, half upskilled for better future jobs, and half chose unpaid care work.
Housing security significantly increased, as did food security. People lived in better housing and ate more balanced meals.
People also felt significantly more connected to the people and places in their neighborhoods.
